unusual scandi looking paperweight signed any ideas on who?
« on: November 02, 2009, 09:27:27 PM »
Hi all i picked this up yesterday, purely because it was signed and unusual looking
Its a flat weight, with smooth well polished flat base. It has a black ground with a white face on it (i saw Ron Wheeler at the fair and he said something like its was a "powder" something i cant remember, but he didnt knoww the signiature either.
it is  9cms in diameter.
The signiature looks like Aaovn 92. does anybody recognise this piece of the signiature, i will scan it tomorrow which should hopefully make it easier to read
many thanks
michelle

The signature reads (Adam) Aaronson. I am sure that he will confirm it, though.

Nice weight.

Appalling handwriting, but yes, it's mine!
It is a nice one! Knowing you, you probably paid peanuts! :rn:
